Forumwarz actually costs very little to run these days since we’re down to one server we’ve already paid for in a colocation. I think it rounds up to about $100 per month.

Currently it makes slightly more than that but it’s been dropping steadily. I imagine at some point it’ll go into the red but that hasn’t happened yet.

We haven’t paid anyone a salary from it forever. All the income goes into an account that we use to pay for the costs. There’s a little extra in there now but that’ll help when the costs start going into the red.


That’s… depressing. I would’ve guessed at least $500 in revenue on the low end. Good to hear from you Trout and hope you’re doing well fabulous person

I might not hang out here much anymore, but I do really care about Forumwarz. Making this game was one of the best things I ever did. Even if the content has run its course, I want to keep it around as long as possible in some form.

The content hasn’t really run its course; so much as become a time capsule or a snap shot of what the internet used to be like. When it wasn’t as diluted and policed as it is now. Log in to see images!

D’aww… makes me want to toss a few bucks into the pot regardless of if this game becomes long term for me or not. Honestly, I think it’s important for the world to laugh at itself and feel there isn’t enough decent satire of the internet on the internet these days. Yes, I’m ignoring Fox News.

Thanks for keeping the game going!

This is why I post all the dumb RP crap that I do. Yes, I’m aware that it’s totally gay and it would have been better a few years ago. But think of the newfabulous persons! They’ll never have the experience that we did, but they deserve something. It’s there, I’m gonna use it. Log in to see images!

Thanks to everyone who kept this thing alive.

Some people just fold like a deck of cards when things get too tough. And when they’re gone I just say, good riddance, next.

I guess I just don’t see what’s so offensive about people who want to have fun on the RP forums? Like, you don’t have to read it, you don’t have to participate, no this site will never be what it was circa 2008-2010, but…like…not a lot we can do about that? I don’t know. Not looking for drama, just maybe live and let live? Bah…carry on.
